She said she wants
To be called them and they
She asked me
Mom is that ok
Yes baby girl
You can be anything
You want in this world
But I want you to understand
Today you make a choice
And this is in your hands
Some people will be confused
Some will be mean
And some may bully you
The people my age
Could have a hard time with it
I have always had
Two sons and two daughters
I may sometimes forget
I won't be mad at you, she said
So Mom, don't worry
If you get...

She asked me

Some will be mean

Eighteen Months
I once believed in fairy tales,
that you could have it all ~
if only you wished hard enough,
believed for long enough;
confusing needs with wants,
I turned them all into knights
on white horses; my saviors,
and I called to them seductively
from a tower purposely built
to be much too tall
to climb
it would seem, so often
what I got for all my hoping
was a yard full of death
and soil filled with dry bones;
nothing beautiful
or lasting could grow here,
in this haunted cemetery ~

When a Devil Dreams
When he uttered his wish he spoke three words
Kill Joshua S.
And so the demon disappeared to unleash what he bore...
He understood his mistake the minute he uttered the words, but his soul revealed its core, and instead of asking for her disease to be ailed, he asked for the murder of her lover. So hurt was he, that he forgot of the thing that plagued her every day since her inception. The very thing he shaped his life around providing for... her health.
"So selfish was he," she thought
"...that with one wish, he...

Nice Guy Chronicles IX
It's crazy to see people begin to settle down, it's a natural process of life
However it's just crazy when you look at people you've known forever begin to change and mature
Life has happened to everyone and I found myself being 'the single friend'
I really didn't notice until one day, I was at a get together and I was literally the only single person there. It didn't bother me though because I've grown really comfortable with myself. Also seeing happy people makes me happy.

A Rice Paper Tigress Named Gloria - Epilogue
A Rice Paper Tigress Named Gloria - Epilogue
Gloria says, “Boy, I am headed to Swarthmore with a banjo on my knee. Do you know what that means Mr. Boswell?”
“Well unless I drop out of substitute teaching and head north to the great state of Pennsylvania we may never cross paths again.”
“That is right. And the tears this brings me are the bluest of the blue. Please tell me the odds are in our favor of meeting in a restaurant here in Baton Rouge during one of my family trips home.”
“The odds are a million to one. But what are the chances of kindred...

Be Great
I want you to be happy
I want your eyes to light up like the skies do during a warm summers night in the backwoods overlooking the mountains
I want your heart to flutter and your excitement to overflow like a child’s sprit when they finally get that reward for being...simply great
I just want that...for you
I took the brunt of it all
Overcame the obstacles and battled within my being on and off throughout the years
Told myself that this form of love is an honor a privilege to even experience
My soul...

A Rice Paper Tigress Named Gloria
A Rice Paper Tigress Named Gloria
This is a high school where I am a substitute teacher for young pianists, flutists, and organists who birth notes with fingers on fire. During their practice sessions, I just melt in my soma zone while they strum my heart with the music of the Gods.
The young ladies chatter like Chickadees with gentlemen in a lyceum where Bach can’t compete with green grass and blue skies. So we follow the sun onto the campus green where lasses are peonies whose windblown fragrance is a kiss for lads while I sit in a Buddha pose with the heart of a...

TO UNDERSTAND WHICH WE SEE
They say that from the very beginning of our lives, we are nothing more than an imaginary image. Planted as an seed in the womb of our mother, as an seed from our father an combination of deep passionate love. For even as we grew as seed into a baby into a child, and evolve into an creation of life we are mutual beings apart of one another. The same blood line that starts our own tree of life as an a FAMILY. For as in life we will encounter situations of hurt, yet we must observe what cause the hurt, along with the inner pain. For everything that we shall go through, there are something's are...

REAL ENERGY FEEDS OFF RARE ENERGY
Let us ponder this silent thought within the depth of our subconsciousness, reaching into the deepness of our heart and soul as a beautiful strong intelligent and unique woman. For how can you miss what you never truly thought you had, if it wasn't yours to have and behold in your life, and world not even in your love burning within your heart ? Let us voyage beyond our deepest imagination into the very existences of our very flesh and blood, that is flowing through our veins as we feel the warmth of our blood pumping through our veins. Systematically running through us as it is intricately...

RELEASE ME FROM THE PAIN
Release me from the pain heavy upon my chest screaming and yelling, out for a release of peace and tranquility from the sound of the noise, please release me from my tormented memories that constantly continues, to play with my inner emotions and feelings opening up gates from HELL. Release me from the depth of my deepness within the equation of the unknown, as I toss and turn beneath the covers of the surface of my darkness, where dreaming became an mere thought of my imagination. Release me to the point of invading the depth and deepness of my heart and soul and mind, as I silently feel the...
